PurpleTrail has been growing! In the last 6 months since PurpleTrail came out of beta we have seen hundreds of thousands of users visit us. They often share suggestions and feature requests.  We have been adding tons of features and currently we have the most comprehensive list of features for online invitations. Today we are making a milestone release with tons of improvements; both visible and not so visble. Here is a sample:

• PurpleTrail Design center : We are launching a revamped design center. It’s faster, has more features and tools and a completely new collection of design elements and invitation designs to choose from. You can now create stunning looking invitation designs like never before. Give it a try and you will never go back to standard invitation designs ever again.  Visit the PurpleTrail Design Center and click on ‘ Design your invitation’
• PurpleTrail is now with added boosters:  We have optimised the service and now PurpleTrail is faster than before. This means an improved and quicker experience for you.
• PurpleTrail looks better: With Spring on its way we decided to give PurpleTrail a new set of clothes and you can now enjoy PurpleTrail with a new header and a new home page. The new header improves the experience your invitees have with your invitations, ecards and announcements.
• Custom subject for emails: You can now customize the subject line for the emails you send out.  Again, this is a feature you will find only on PurpleTrail.
• Others: Also a host of smaller improvements like a better RSVP box to increase the response rate for your invites.

Do let us know what you think of the improvements and write to us at support@purpletrail.com Thanks, The PurpleTrail Team

We all love to get together with friends and families for parties. And with these events, it is usually “the more the merrier”. But with our busy lives and busy schedules, how do we plan the event? Often times we have family and friends that are willing to help, but how do we let them help while still staying in control?

Here is the answer – use PurpleTrail and TaskBin! For your party, you can use PurpleTrail to come to a consensus about the date, time and place for the party. Then, once you have that settled, you can round up people willing to help. Using TaskBin, you can create a group for your party. TaskBin gives you an organized “to-do list” for everyone helping with the party. Each person has their own list, and you can see and edit everyone’s list. You can add things to others’ lists and delegate the work that needs to be done. You can add “pick up cake” to Aunt Millie’s list, and “bring yard games” to cousin Jamie’s list. Everyone is then on the same page and know’s exactly what they need to do. TaskBin also sends summary emails to remind everyone without you having to bother with it. Now that’s what I call putting technology to use!

We would love to hear about some of the most memorable parties and get-togethers you have been to. Please write to us at feedback@purpletrail.com
